In this Immersive Living History Experience, Judith Kalaora, Founder & Artistic Director of History At PlayTM, LLC channels Dolley Madison, wife to President James Madison; 4th President of the United States. It was First Lady Dolley Madison who used her political savvy and intuition to create Washingtons first "bi-partisan" social gatherings, where legislators could mix business and pleasure. Guests and viewers may learn about etiquette and the language of the fan, along with anecdotes from Dolleys personal experiences that share the abundant mix of emotions involved in being raised as a Quaker woman in Regency-Era United States.
